Stunningly beautiful July 1, 2008 Absolutely amazing. And a quick read, too, so you really have no excuse to miss it. SHUT UP. NO EXCUSE. Jeez, you can even borrow it from me, okay?
Excellent! June 27, 2008 This is a wonderful book. Very quick read. Makes you truly appreciate your own life. Highly recommended.
An inspiring life testament June 21, 2008
Bauby gives us a truly remarkable and inspirational story of his life trapped inside a body that no longer serves him.
But his mind remains as sharp as ever.
He transcends his immobility with grace and a remarkable gift of a rich, lucid imagination. He is free in his mind to enjoy all of life and it's lush sensory gifts and memories...to take flight as if a butterfly.
A heartbreaking true story.
What a great read! June 19, 2008 This book was an eye-opening and amazing view into the internal life of a man under tragic circumstances. It is a very human look - sometimes funny and sarcastic and at times tragically sad - into Bauby's mind and spirit which never gives in.
Amazing June 18, 2008 I work with brain injured people daily and they never cease to amaze me. The book and the movie are testimony to the strength of the human spirit.
